Thanks for answering!
I see, so if the guy behind "WorldofDSLR" are unreliable maybe both those videos are fake. If that's the case I wonder why Ricoh has decided to limit the maximum ISO for filming and the green mode to such a low number. A bit strange I think when the K-3 is able to produce good quality images in higher iso than that. ... But that maybe belong to another discussion.
Yes i know that the green mode is fully automatic, P is by the way a great invention. :-)

Hello!
First I want to apologize for my spelling and grammar, English is not my native language but I'll try to explain my question as clear as I can.
This is my first post here at Pentax forums. I've been a Pentax user for about six years, using a K200D, but when I a couple of days ago bought a K-3 I got a problem.
According to these Youtube-videos: You Tube |

it's possible to use ISO up to 51 200 when filming. The problem is that I can't find out how to do that. I have tried several settings but the ISO ends at 3 200 in rec-mode. The same with the auto ISO in green mode, the ISO never goes above 3 200. However, in all other modes, semi- and full manual, I can, manually, use ISO from 100 - 51 200 without any problem. TAv mode follows whatever I have I have put in the auto-ISO settings in the menu and can go all the way up to 51 200.
The Auto-ISO setting in the menu (camera symbol / no 2) is set to 100 - 51 200 but it seem that this setting has no effect when using the rec- or green modes, those will still not go above 3 200. The auto-ISO setting in the menu is also accessable in all modes except for green where it's greyed out and it don't seem to be any ISO-setting dedicated to filming.
In short:
When the Auto-ISO setting in the menu is set to 100 - 51 200:
Auto-ISO in green mode goes up to 3 200
Auto-ISO in TAv mode goes up to 51 200.
All semi-manual and full manual modes can use ISO 100-51 200 with the exception of rec-mode that stops at 3 200.
The firmware is 1.03.
So, I guess that I've just mixed something up or misunderstood something, but what? How can I make the iso in the green- and rec-modes go above 3 200?
Thanks in advance.
